I'm on Tiktok and I usually come across to normal content because algorithm BUT once I was on fyp ulogged and literally thought everything was satire. Lana tok is weird-ish but not too much. I usually come across to songs and the outfits that go with them or people making Pinterest boards of songs and albums. Sometimes I come across those coquette girls with dark circles that look like they're 12 and on heroin that are honestly so gross but see myself as a teen wanting to be them. I feel like these people have no personality when your entire existence is fabricated based on something you saw on the internet.

The song is literally generic 90s dance music that was popular in 2014-2017 and that I would eat it up in 2015. It's giving this. I still love this for parties but not as a single from such a prestige singer like Beyonce in 2022.

Do we know if she had even attempted to leave?

I also feel like she was relying on her label too much. Tinashe was neglected by her label, had her last album delayed and horribly promoted so she left the label and started her own. It's not easy, extremely expensive and risqué but since she's been posting music videos and released two albums that look pretty high budget I assume that she's thriving. Sky has a cult like following and I believe that she would be able to live as an indie artist but homegirl probably wanted Lana's level of fame as an alt pop queen.

The songs are more focused on the melody and ambient than the lyrics, which is nothing new and I love it. It's shit but it's nowhere near the worst. The majority has a bad early catalog including Lana in her teenage years. The songs were trendy at the time and One's aesthetic reminds me of Gossip Girl and late 2000s high fashion.

This is so sad to hear but I'm not surprised. She did get robbed when she was in her "prime" years according to Hollywood and now she will probably face a lot of ageism if she manages to even get near her NTMT relevance. Notice how she acknowledged that people called her difficult and unprofessional. There's probably truth in that but we hear successful celebs being assholes everyday. I highly doubt she's that bad that everyone avoids her like the plague. This may sound tone deaf and it's not but her career is an example why people need a plan B when pursuing music or something related to art or starting a business. I applaud celebrities when they have a bachelor's degree. It's extremely hard but we always need a plan B in life.

She's an album artist. Stop being a hater. She doesn't have to be good live even though she's making money off of it. You should be grateful that she's blessing us with a song. /s for those who didn't get it

I'm waiting for delusional fans with their excuses once again...

Born To Die? It's clear that many people on LB don't think it's artistically as good as her older albums. I've also seen people (usually outside of LB) using the themes as their personally trait by pretending to be into sugar dadies and emulating the Lolita aesthetic (gross).

Guys I wish Sky would be as big as Halsey. In an alternative universe she would sell milions of copies but she sadly remained underrated with a debut album for 10 years. On the other hand, it's a pretty stan behavior to act like she was doing us a favor for releasing music and performing. She's literally doing a job she chose to. She's not doing charity work. She's releasing music/an albums as a product for us to consume and buy and perform to pay bills. Everything here is constructive criticism by fans who think she's doing a half assed work. When it comes to mental health, we have little info about her life and honestly I don't feel comfortable discussing about stuff she doesn't share. But still, there are mentally ill artists that still perform better than her and she's been performing the exact same way since 2013.

If I owned a record label or was a manager I wouldn't want to work with Sky. She has good music but this kind of messiness is extremely bad. Who would want an unreliable artist that can't sell millions and has mental issues that badly affect their career? If her voice and sound was bad but she showed passion and confidence then it would've been much better. People don't want to watch insecure artists. Imagine having an important presentation for work or in college and saying "I was bad, wasn't I? ". Rappers usually sound bad live but people still watch them because they're so confident and hype their audience. I literally facepalmed when I read @sophiesmom post about her saying that she was bad and her fans comforting her. That sounds like something a teenager would do or a quirky main character in a Disney movie/series. Like girl, don't go for huge gigs if you're not mentally prepared.

Being a stan has never been harder except for Lana in 2020/21 but at least she was releasing music Halsey's haters have been really quiet for some time. I remember them whining on this thread for Halsey being more successful than Sky...

Lets all agree that Sky has no stage presence. She moves like she's in a karaoke bar and her genre of music and outfits don't help it either. She looks so uninterested and not in a Kurt Cobain kind of way. The technical difficulties were a cherry on the top. In more than 10 years she still managed to stay at the level of other local indie artists that perform at bars and have barely any experience. Kind of embarrassing. Small indie bands that perform at my ex local high school look like MJ compared to Sky.

I always think of this video whenever I visit this thread (watch till the end).

I mean, celeb marriages usually last for 5 years. On the other hand, whenever I think how Sam may be a user I remember that he dated a woman with no rights for 5 years. Nobody knew when and if she will ever be free and she was flopping at the time. Maybe he was after her for the wrong reasons but fell in love eventually. Britney's known for having a sweet personality.

Something tells me that this is going to be in my top 5 most listened song by the end of this year. It was weird in the first listening but I got hooked after.

It's still THE Lana Del Rey album like it or not. I noticed that if someone's album had huge success and the others had a little less sales, the artist will be associated with that album forever. BTD was such a bold introduction to the mainstream that none of her other albums can emulate that. I personally wish any other album was on Billboard because it makes it seem like it's her only good album and everything after that were flops and meh.

It looks like the coolest old production company intro or an intro to a retro Netflix series. That intro made me having high standards more than I should've.

Omg me too but I still love that song. The tempo is too slow even for my chill playlist but now I miss that kind of style from her. Ai only ever hesr it when listening to the UV record. If she released it in BB or COCC I would eat it up. I loved that song back in my tumblr grunge phase but I quickly stop having the desire to listen to it along with bands like The Neighborhood.

At 13 I was obsessed...get ready for it..... Born To Die Gemini dubstep remix and Young and Beautiful Kaskade remix. Those remixes including Simmertime Sadness made me listen to her original versions. I went to hear those remixes and the parts before the drop still sound good but the drops ruin the songs.

I love reverb versions popular songs and listen to old stuff which made my ears used to that kind of sound. DF has unpleasant effects and tries too hard to sound retro that actual 80s songs sound clearer. Also, I'm all for retro revivals but I still prefer NTMT's combo of modern and retro. it's honestly kinda lazy and unoriginal to make a replica of music from a certain decade. If it were 2019-2020 then it would've been interesting, but now every musician and their mom has 80s elements or 2000s pop punk.

Hello beautiful people! I shaterred my phone and forgot my password, so I'm a lil late to the party. Okay, so I agree that DF ia kinda bland. I had such high expectations. Someone said that too much is happening and I fully agree, so much is happening that no part truly stands out. When you listen to synth classics by Depeche Mode, it's either the guitar or the synths being the main focus depending on the song. Also, the entire chorus is ironically forgettable. Someone also mentioned One. I listened it a couple of days ago when DF was released and boyyy it's bad. I loved that kind of generic pop in the early 2010s but I couldn't imagine liking that song even back then. No wonder it flopped, it sounds like those knock off songs you hear at clothing stores lmao.

Context? Btw, Sainthoax is the most stereotypical millennial page ever. I used to follow them for the memes but they still couldn't get over Obama not being the president anymore.

What kind of promo would've she had with Capitol anyway? The biggest promo she had was that Elon Musk rumor started by Stan Twitter. Knowing Sky and Capitol, the promo would be a single post like Sky Ferreira | Masochism (insert irrelevant pic or an album cover) and that would be that, maybe some interview on some small yt channel and a red carpet moment were Sky would look like someone held her at gunpoint.

You guys have an idea when her album is getting released? I absolutely love the three singles she released as well as the aesthetic. I kept fantasizing of having it in my vinyl collection and her choosing the Golden cover art of the album.
